Mcstealth Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Avionics Services in Kerrville is one to talk to also. They have done many. Just got off the phone with him and he says Aspen has a promotion. Don't they all say that???!!! Ronny, 830-257-9734 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clh Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Have used Avionics Unlimited quite a bit in the past. They have a reputation of standing behind their work. Personally, I have had good luck with them correcting any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docket Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 I have used both Avionics Unlimited and Select Avionics. They both did good work. Avionics Unlimited, however, really takes the prize -- they have delivered the plane to me without a squawk after the GTN 750/650 install. Talk to Johnny Blain at Avionics Unlimited. Or talk to Greg at Select Avionics. You will like either of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Txbyker Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Just picked up my 20J this morning from Avionics Unlimited with EDM730 install. Great people, honest and on top of it. Gina can help you there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSMooniac Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Avionics Unlimited has a good reputation on the AOPA Forum as well. Avionics bids will vary tremendously by shop, so if you're comparing quotes make sure you get an out-the-door quote with any contingencies spelled out in writing, as well as the warranty.

M20F-1968 Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 I have also found Erik at McKee Avionics to be knowledgeable and he does good work. Talk with him specifically. McKee is on San Marcos, TX airport. He installed the panel that is posted in my gallery. John Breda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MARZ Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Great experience with Avionics Unlimited I have a 430 that I wanted to do the terrain update - called them and they had me come up with the plane, pulled the radio, installed the board, back in the plane all checked within an hour - great folks.

steelerp Posted April 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 Thanks for the great feedback. Lean towards Crystal since Hector (Aero Comfort) will do the removal and reinstall of interior panels (for a fee...which is fine). Prices do vary. Johnny at Conroe is impressive. Thanks again.

steelerp Posted June 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Just a note. I went with Crystal Avionics and they did a great job. Paid Aero Comfort to R/R whatever John wanted out to get the job done. John moved the engine monitor up and over so that I could keep the KI209 for the KX155. Aspen has got a great product! Will add weather soon! Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetdriven Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Crystal does a lot of work for Jimmy at All-American. Our plane was actually in his shop for a 430W install when we bought it. Avionics Unlimited has a great reputation around here. I have called Gina several times for advice and took maybe an hour of her time on the phone. They are helpful folks and sound competitive. I could go either way and be happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
